Could you build this?

Partial The controller-driven UI for managing the loader is straightforward to vibe-code. The loader itself runs on modified Nintendo Switch consoles through exploits, which is specialized security work that vibe coding can't provide.

What it would actually take: The UI side can be a web or native app that sends commands to the loader. The hard part is the homebrew and exploit chain on Switch and Switch 2 hardware, which requires console-security reverse engineering and carries legal and platform-ban risk.
